Followed by...

I support the phrase "To be determined". ViperSnake151 supports "None, latest model". I don't like this description because it sounds like it's official that nothing will ever follow this in the sequence. Any thoughts?? Georgia guy (talk) 19:21, 25 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Until the S6 is announced in 2015, it is possible the S5 will not have a successor (although this is very unlikely!). I prefer the "latest model" terminology. Also, this sort of info box shows up on many other articles, consistency is important. Frmorrison (talk) 15:34, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

60 fps 4k video recording?

If yes, add to article.--— Preceding unsigned comment added by user (talk • contribs) — Preceding unsigned comment added by FoureychEightess (talk • contribs) 01:14, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No comparison?

Why is there no comparison like on the Galaxy S4 page?

You can create one if you would like to see the variant comparison. I originally created the S4 comparison and I don't see it as necessary anymore, the differences were minor. I would never delete it from the S4 article though.Frmorrison (talk) 02:44, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I added a comparison of the first generation S5 models. Will add the LTE+ and Neo devices later. I also need somebody with a more reliable source to verify the LTE bands of the Chinese models since my sources were in disagreement over which were actually supported. Dinjiin (talk) 04:53, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Consider Merging

I put a merger proposal between S5 Active since the S5 Active and S5 only have eight minor differences and only two are major - the MIL Spec and buttons. Also, the S5 article is is not that long. I created something about the differences. Note the S4 and S4 Active had more than two major differences, so those have two articles.Frmorrison (talk) 02:40, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Model SM-G900P

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

If someone with an account has the time, can you add SM-G900P to the list of S5 models? Noticed it when I was swapping the sd card over. This phone is sold in the US market for the Sprint network.

I will add it. Frmorrison (talk) 18:49, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

How about encryption details, these are kinda important duh?

I.e. Hardware supported encryption? Y/N, FDE on by default? etc. It would be good to know if someone will be 'privacy-raped' when they cross a border or lose their phone! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2002:C65B:E41A:0:F8F4:FA82:843D:5209 (talk) 12:53, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

NFC, USB

NFC in all versions? Between the plastic back cover and a L-shaped second plastic foil layer? (Seems to be Qi (standard) – hidden in table) According to Amazon NFC is built-in in the battery.

The "double socket" under the waterproof lid at the front/bottom of the phone seems to be a USB 3.0 Micro-B-socket, which takes a (quicker if supported by PC, ...) USB 3.0 Micro-B-plug (using all 2x5 contacts = both holes) OR a USB 2.0 Micro-B-plug (5 contacts, 1 hole). See: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Serial_Bus#Hardware + http://www.tabtech.de/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Galaxy-S5-micro-usb.jpg

Back can be opened with Fingernail to change battery und (afterwards) SIM and SD-card. --Helium4 (talk) 09:26, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
